Gerry Johansson’s series entitled Sverige (Sweden) comprises photographs taken in Swedish
conurbations between 1988 and 2005. The pictures are borne up by their iconographic
signs and symbols, and the viewer feels very much at home with them. The melancholy
often considered a characteristic Swedish trait is tangible, but his images open up to vari-

I know an American € 590 photographer who works in Japan, shooting interiors. I asked if she
had tried any exteriors or cityscapes, and she almost visibly shuddered. When I saw the
results of a few attempts at them, I saw her frustration: the control that she exerted on
small spaces, and the relative composure of the interiors she shot, was practically lost in
urban Japan. There is no such thing as unobstructed field of view, and power lines hang in
dense clumps that shoot out on new trajectories at every street and alley. It’s a compositional
nightmare. But it’s the substance of Kanemura’s work, reportedly taken while on
newspaper routes across Tokyo: maximalist compositions whose vanishing points carom
off apartment blocks, street poles, hoardings and bicycle handles. But Kanemura counter
intuitively works with the density, often foregrounding a significant obstacle, anchoring
the picture with an unlovely but inescapable feature. The book is printed quite dark, which
accentuates the graphic claustrophobia; the only breaks in the book come in the form of two
separate sheets printed with a metallic ink on one side. These breaks don’t seem to relate
to anything, but they provide a welcome break for those who find the visual experience
maddening. Kanemura may be attempting some kind of integration with this project; the
unconscious response in the city, and perhaps with such work, is to keep moving and walk
briskly in order to let the chaos blur into a fog of geometry. The “strategy” here is to get
tangled up in it all. ALAN RAPP Read, Publisher’s Description. No Obi present. - € 175

Roth, et. al., The Book of 101 Books, Vince Aletti writes, “Though Day of Paris is full of
cityscapes. . . . the photographer is always alert to the human heart of the city, and even his
pictures of figures passing on the street are engaging. “ As Parr and Badger explain, “In
the end, Day of Paris, despite the presence of the radical Brodovitch, is deeply nostalgic in
tone. In the uncertain days following the war nostalgia for prewar Paris was both inevitable,
and probably an important part of the healing process. “ A true classic containing
